Amen to that. The next school doesn't believe in school captains.

Yes I am a do gooder too - an old lady had fallen over while out on a walk and had cracked her head - a lot of people milling around and one had called an ambulance but the old lady cancelled it - I was the only one with a car - she wouldn't have an ambulance, wouldn't go to emergency but I convinced her to go in my car to the local walk in doctors - we went there got her checked over and bandaged up and went back to the counter - she had no money so I had to spring the $90 - through one of her neighbours I found out she does not remember the incident or going to the doctors - good bye $90 - cannot even claim it back on Medicare as the account is in the old ladies name.

I suppose I can go and bang on her door and demand payment but I wouldn't feel right.

Oh well - the cost of being a do gooder.

That's like the time a guy ran out of petrol outside my house.
I gave him my spare fuel can full which he promised to refill and return it.
Last I ever saw of him.....

Appreciated your original thread Vlad Tepes, but it appears some others haven't read it properly

I tore a colleague a new fundamental this morning - hopefully he will experience the joy of release from his constipated mindset.

In what way? Vlad offered to help, the lady didn't want it and the stuff went back on the shelves - the second bit is not all that important, the important bit was that the offer was made in the first place not that the offer of help could not be fulfilled.

I interpret it the same way as hogarthde.....vlad is having a laugh....as was I when I read it....
